I think the questions that we are not asking loudly enough are:
If Ebola is mainly in the DRC why is America crying the loudest about it?
How are Americans getting Ebola?
What are Americans doing in DRC?

Caribbean people are such natural poets. Reading a book set in Jamaica and the barber name his shop 'Addis Ababa Shop'

I'm so tickled by how clever that is 🤣

For my 35th birthday, I gifted myself an adult gap year. A whole year of time to spend however I pleased with all my bills paid in full. I travelled, read a lot, spent time with loved ones, smelled the roses, attempted DIY, and got in the best shape of my life. Best year ever!

Never forget that you are the main data center. Drink water, and consume as much literature as possible.

Piece of advice: if you are a parent, watch out what the Finns are doing and copy them. It's one of the few countries that pays closer attention to their youth. They observe, study, and adjust all the time!

For example, they are now gradually reversing their decade-long, tech-heavy education model to combat declining cognitive performance and severe classroom distractions. Schools are scaling back on devices in favor of printed textbooks, handwriting instruction, and pen-and-paper assignments.

We can copy what women in Ireland did years ago, now that it is us being killed. We just don't got to work. For three days.
And the men who want to join can join. And should. We could do it.
Alternately, all of Kenya really should have stopped by now. Like. TOTAL SHUTDOWN.

Farmers have figured out that the cheapest pesticide is a strip of flowers.

When you plant wildflowers through a crop field, not just around the edge but in strips running through the middle, you get ladybugs, lacewings, hoverflies, and parasitic wasps living in the field instead of visiting it.

They eat the aphids, the caterpillars, and the mites for free, all summer long.

In controlled trials, fields with tailored flower strips had leaf-beetle numbers 40 to 50% lower and crop damage cut by around 60%, enough to drop below the threshold where spraying was even considered worth it.

The flowers attract a standing army to our fields.

We spent decades engineering chemicals to kill the insects eating the crop, when the insects that eat those insects would have worked for the price of seed.

5 men used all their body weight to restraint one black man. As he was faced down, one continuously pressed his knee on his neck until he stopped breathing.

Happened in Dublin, Ireland. They’re under every post laughing and calling it the Irish George Floyd. Rest in Peace Yves Sakila.

Realising a lot of people don’t know what pan-Africanism is. People think it’s about aesthetics and linguistics, when it’s actually a political economy project about Africans integrating economically and politically in order to create the leverage required to have sovereignty.

Worrying

[Farida Bemba Nabourema @Farida_N]

It is not just trying to rebrand itself. France is actively in search of new colonies. This is not speculation or Pan-Africanist conspiracy theory. Two years ago, Macron presented a plan to his own parliament explicitly identifying anglophone and lusophone African countries as France’s new strategic frontier, the next territory to be brought into the orbit of French influence now that francophone Africa has had the dignity to show it the door. The methodology might be different because we are not 1946. The vocabulary will be partnership, investment, security cooperation, cultural exchange. But the result will be identical because the logic has never changed.

So to our “anglophone and lusophone” brothers and sisters across the continent, congratulations on your new status as France’s next strategic frontier. That status earned our countries labelled as “francophone” 7 places out of the top 10 poorest countries in Africa.

It really pays to speak fluent “comment allez vous?”.

They also went for Ombachi (social media), Bien (music), & Kipchoge (sports) to break the will of Gen Zs. The message is clear: "If you want to make it, don't revolt, collaborate? If your favourite celebs & icons are doing it, why not you? Why resist? Make money, forget change."

[Ohta Ryota 🇸🇬 @Ohta_Ryota]

Macron calling himself a Pan Africanist is the worst insult to Pan Africanism in our generation. The fact that this insult has been uttered in Nairobi is even more painful
